Meh... nothing in there is anything I didn't already know. Vegas odds are hardly something to go by 100%. Steve Nash tells the truth, but he's never tried to make anything into something it isn't. All last season, he expressed doubts and acted humbly. People started freaking out on some of the things he said because he isn't as conceited and full of it as most players in the league. It might take the Suns some time to click, but maybe it will just work. The basic point is... Suns are written off almost every off-season and they have the mental fortitude to prove people wrong over and over. The age of Nash and Hill is brought up more than anything, and it will take some toll on them over the course of the season, but it does that with almost all the players in the league. Nash is more in shape and conditioned than 98% of the league, even players 10 years younger. Until the season is well under way, all talk is nothing more than speculation. To me, the preseason foretelling the regular season thing is superbly ridiculous, especially when looking at the minutes played by players that won't even enter a game baring garbage time, or injury plague. When you look at the games in preseason that PHX has played more standard regular season rotations, it's almost the complete opposite of those games where they haven't.

Okay, after the Nuggets loss - it is definitely time to worry regardless if season has not started.

With the statistics that are out, with the "odds" article shown above, and with the continuous BLOW-OUTS, you cannot ignore the elephant in the room.

Panic time is here.

I am officially worried. Not panicking, but if we're not gelling yet then we're going to have a rough, ROUGH first fourth of the season, at which point we might be in a bit of a hole.
